I haven't been a fan of the British monarchy since my remote ancestors drove King George's armies out in 1783. Prince Charles has always been a good argument for turning Britain into a republic when his sainted mother dies. Is there really anything in this silly incident that I should care about?

I wonder what it is going to be like at the wedding of the two darlings of the British monarchy next April.
